We are sorry to hear that you have a bad start. Please try the following:

Activate the strict mode in the geo-filter (very important for Destiny)

Set the home location of your geo-filter on your home

Set the distance to 1500km

Set Congestion Control Anti-Flood to 70% when downloading and uploading

You should now be optimally set to Destiny. Looking for a game. Removed (laggy) players are excluded from joining, meaning they only play with players nearby. This will give you a much better ping and much less delay.

Sorry to hear you are off to a bad start. Please try this:

On Geo-Filter, disable Strict Mode (very important for Destiny)

Set your Geo-Filter's home location to your home

Set the distance to 1500km

On Congestion Control, set Anti-Flood to 70% on both Download and Upload

You should now setup optimally for Destiny. Search for a game. Distant (laggy) player wants to be blocked by joining, meaning you only play with nearby players. This will give you a much better ping and a lot less lag.

With strict mode on, dedicated servers are blocked. But in Destiny, they have an unusual networking system where sometimes a player connects to everyone through a dedicated server (instead of directly). This means if you block servers you can get the BEAVER error code. So strict mode OFF for Destiny is much better.

Yes you can block them. Click on their icon and in the ping panel below, give them a name and a rating of 0%. They will then be added to your Deny section. Now if you connect to them in future, they will not be able to connect to you.

You cannot use this feature to boot someone from your game - it will take affect after the game has completed.

If you set Anti-Flood to 70%, that means you will only be using 70% of your bandwidth. Anti-Flood ensures that there is room (in this case, 30%) for low-latency traffic like game data to get to their destination faster.

That depends on which game you are playing. If you are still playing Destiny I wouldn't recommend trying this - Destiny has quite a fragile server system, so if you block the wrong server it can lead to the game kicking you from online services.

To block a server in other games you would set your radius over the server you wish to force, turn on Strict Mode and keep Ping Assist at 0ms. If your radius is very small you would only be able to connect to that server.

Just to clarify, which game mode are you playing? Are you playing Crucible, or are you doing strikes? It may be you have to play with the Geo-Filter disabled when you are in a party.

With the Geo-Filter turned off, do you encounter much lag? It's worth saying that if your experience in a particular game is worse with the Geo-Filter on, then you should always turn it off and just use it to monitor your ping.
